BEER HALL

At the bar, Hall Pass features 16 rotating draft lines pouring a curated mix of German beer hall classics, local craft favorites, and easy-drinking crowd-pleasers designed for long game days. Standout selections include Radeberger Pilsner, a crisp, classic German pour with a sharp, refreshing hop finish; Paulaner Munich Hell, a balanced lager with soft malt sweetness; and Tucher Hefeweizen, a traditional Bavarian wheat beer with notes of banana and clove. For those who prefer something darker or hop-forward, Hacker-Pschorr Dunkel offers toasted bread and caramel malt richness, while Solace Partly Cloudy and Evolution Lot No. 3 IPA deliver bright citrus and bold bitterness. The draft lineup will rotate regularly, ensuring something familiar alongside new selections for repeat visits.

Beer Hall Bites

Food is at the heart of the concept, with a proudly pretzel-focused menu featuring dough baked fresh daily in partnership with Das Pretzel Haus. From 1- and 2-pound soft pretzels served with bier cheese and house mustard to smothered variations like Buffalo Chicken or Spinach Artichoke, the menu leans playful and built for sharing. Starters include Jumbo Tater Tots infused with jalapeño cream cheese, Loaded Wedge Fries, and crispy pickle-brined Chicken Tenders, while all handhelds are served on house pretzel bread.
